kennedy corp is thinking in investing in a new location the managers think that opening a new store will cost 1170. they expect the following years profits 250 in year one, 370 in year 2, in year 3 650, AND 600 IN YEAR 4. THE CURRENT wacc IS 8% WHAT IS THE npV OF THIS INVESTMENT?
Given,
Cost = 1170
Year 1 profit = 250
Year 2 profit = 370
Year 3 profit = 650
Year 4 profit = 600
WACC = 8% or 0.08
Solution :-
NPV
= [year 1 profit (1 + WACC)] + [year 2 profit (1 + WACC)2] + [year 3 profit (1 + WACC)3] + [year 4 profit (1 + WACC)4] - cost
= [250 (1 + 0.08)] + [370 (1 + 0.08)2] + [650 (1 + 0.08)3] + [600 (1 + 0.08)4] - 1170
= [250 (1.08)] + [370 (1.08)2] + [650 (1.08)3] + [600 (1.08)4] - 1170
= [250 (1.08)] + [370 (1.1664)] + [650 (1.259712)] + [600 (1.36048896)] - 1170
= 231.48148148 + 317.2153635 + 515.99095666 + 441.017911677 - 1170
= 1505.71 - 1170
= 335.71
So, NPV of this investment is 335.71
